Now I will come out and admit it, right now I’m not a great halo 5 player. On past halo games I have had K/D’s at about 1.5 or two, so I’m not close to being bad. But I feel like the assault rifle is very under powered. This is frustrating from a long time fan of the franchise. The assault rifle should be a weapon you rely on, and quite frankly I can’t. I am still getting used to the thruster pack, which so far I like. I have a this distinct feeling that if u aren’t playing with a bunch of buddys you have been playing halo with for years, then you’re screwed. I can’t just join pick up games anymore and its sad. I wont be able to play this as much as I would like because I have other priorities, but I feel the weapon balance just isn’t balanced. I’ve always loved the assault rifle and I think new people to the series should get to love it too, however, if this is the way 343 interprets it now, then I’m highly disappointed.
Hmm. I find the AR very reliable, about on par with Halo 4’s but with even more flexibility.
Are you serious? People are freaking cross mapping on midship with that thing. It needs a range nerf.
The last last thing I want is the AR to be a joke like H3 but right now it’s too powerful.
